Sponsorship Spotlight & GIVEAWAY: Paper Love Stationery- CLOSED

Hi dudes! Today, I have a sponsorship spotlight & giveaway with the lovely Ardiana, and her Etsy shop, Paper Love Stationery. So excited to be hosting a giveaway with her. She makes the cutest paper goods!

1. Tell us a little bit about yourself:
I'm a twenty-two year old college student who is majoring in accounting. I work full time for a wholesale paper company and attend school at night. I love coffee, sushi, movies, camping, and adventures. I want to live at Hogwarts. Or Cinderella's Castle. Harry Potter and Optimus Prime are my heroes.

2. How & why did you get your company started?
I started a personal blog in 2009, that I seldom post on (I seriously can not find time!) and I started my shop in May of this year after I found a really great way to express my creativity. I always had a love for creating pretty things and within the past year, I discovered designing paper goods was a really great outlet for me, and so I decided to open my Etsy Shop, PAPER LOVE STATIONERY.

3. What are you most looking forward to about fall?
Umm, being that it is just recently becoming my most fav season of the year, I would say all the cliche fall things lol Pumpkin Spiced Everything!!! HALLOWEEN! The crisp fall air (this is my fav thing about fall!) Hoodies! and bon fires with friends!!

4. Who or what is your biggest inspiration?
I have soo many inspirational people in my life. From my amazing parents, who are able to overcome any obstacle in there way, to my cousin, who recently passed away from a life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, to his mom (my Aunt) for being THE strongest human being in the entire world. Each one of them have taught me sooo much about life and I don't even think they realize they're teaching me such important things half the time. Life is nothing without my family and friends, they inspire me to work hard, dream big, and be able to do whatever I apsire to do.

6. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Oh my gosh! This question never gets any easier does it? 5 years used to seem like forever when I was little, but it really isn't that long lol I really hope to have graduated from college with a degree in accounting. And from there, I would absolutely love to open a brick ad mortar store where I can display all my items for people to come visit & shop.

I'm so excited to be giving away these adorable Little Owls Note Cards! I'm kind of in love with them. I want to send one to everyone in my life. I mean, you can't tell me it wouldn't make your day/week/month/year to receive one of these adorable little cards in the mail. They're kind of the cutest.
